Introduction I’m passionate about business and I like to motivate and energise clients. I work with solo entrepreneurs and clients having 300 employees. Working in both the UK and other European countries, I have real enthusiasm for coaching people who are serious about change, in personal and commercial contexts. My strengths are attributed to my engineering training and project management experience, gained in previous roles. I started my professional career as an engineer in the energy industry. I’ve lectured at Calderdale College, Salford University, and have spoken at numerous industry conferences during my varied career. Having a bachelor’s degree (BSc) in mechanical engineering and a master’s degree (MBA) in business administration, I was also awarded chartered engineer status (CEng). I have experience in working with businesses from a wide range of industries including automotive, ceramics, defence, energy, engineering, and manufacturing. I coach in; entrepreneurship, the opportunity, the founders, resource requirements, financing entrepreneurial ventures, start-up and after, innovation, creativity, marketing, pricing, financial statements, budgeting, and break-even analysis.
